Book Description

The present book aims at providing the
readers with some of the most recent development of new and advanced
materials and their applications as nanosensors. Examples of such
materials are ferrocene and cyclodextrines as mediators, ionic liquid
crystals, self-assembled monolayers on macro/ nano-structures,
perovskite nanomaterials and functionalized carbon materials. The
emphasis of the book will be devoted to the difference in properties and
its relation to the mechanism of detection and specificity.
Miniaturization on the other hand, is of unique importance for sensors
applications. The chapters of this book present the usage of robust,
small, sensitive and reliable sensors that take advantage of the growing
interest in nano-structures. Different chemical species are taken as
good example of the determination of different chemical substances
industrially, medically and environmentally. The book includes five
chapters namely liquid crystal-nanostructures hybrids and its sensor
applications, importance and applications of some mediators in
chemistry, self-assembly monolayers: new strategy of surface
modification for sensor applications, perovskites: smart nanomaterials
for sensory applications and the last chapter about functionalized
carbon based materials for sensing and biosensing applications: from
graphite to graphene.
